is always bringing up how no "Christian" should support Trump because he's a sinner. Yet every person I've met has sinned. The very fact that he is fallible(makes mistakes) actually makes him more relatable to the average person.

Marriage failures.

Business failures.

Mountain of litigation against him.

Assassination attempts.

Yet you could tell he's pushing forward. God willing.

Could just chill and golf his remaining years as a human being and no one would judge. Except God. So he carries on. God willing.

How many times does he forgive?
I doubt its as simple as living a complete lifetime of sin and then repenting on your death bed, i suspect the church just made that line up to try get millionaires to donate on their death beds.

in Christianity Jesus forgives infinitely

and yes it is that simple if it's genuine, it is not by works that you are redeemed but by Jesus' sacrifice

you don't have to donate a penny, it's about a genuine relationship with Jesus in Christianity.

Good job on breaking the addiction! You have to give yourself some credit though.

Ok can you explain the whole rest of the bible for me?
I mean there is entire passages telling you not to do all this stuff, seems pointless if you have a get out of hell free card, because heres a fact for you, 90% of people will repent when looking down the barrel of a gun, hell just go do jury duty and watch prisoners giving their statements.

In actuality you end up forgiving yourself for things you believed were wrong. God can't do that for you(that's all in your head).

God doesn't come down with a staff and say, "Trump that was your 10,000th Hail Mary" you are absolved of your sins.

You are the "God" you seek forgiveness from hence the Bible being a "story" about "mankind" and God's "one and only son". He died for your sins?

Most people who "sin badly" do things in their life to "balance the scales". This isn't to show "God" or "Jesus" "Hey look what I did after I did something bad". It's you all along saying, "Wow I'm better then I was the day before and I'll try and do better everyday".

God isn't involved. Only you are.

an example is Luke 23:42-43

42 Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.”

43 Jesus answered him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.”

in this example Jesus was on the cross with a thief beside him, the thief lived a life of sin but genuinely accepted Christ as his Lord. Jesus did not tell him ok first you have to work at a soup kitchen, donate your money to charity, do works in my name etc etc. He told him his faith was enough, genuine faith -- not this "haha at the last moment i'm going to trick God and tell him I believe in him to get in heaven". In Christianity, Jesus knows what is in your heart, you can't just trick God.

the point of sacrifice of Jesus in Christianity is he died for humanities sins, he not only suffered a real physical human death on the cross but also the wrath of God. He bore all of humanities sins, past, present and the future in that moment.

We do not live life without sin, and in Christianity when you accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior you want to honor that by living through his way. You will sin, but you will feel guilty and not want to repeat it.

It's like being married, you will make mistakes but if you genuinely love your partner you will want to rectify those mistakes and improve.



Not biblically accurate, that's some hindu blasphemy shit

That is not christianity you are describing.

Sorry bud I interpret scripture differently then you do feel free to correct me.

Jesus didn't die for your sins. Sorry.

God doesn't exist in the way that people of the Abrahamic faith "believe" if he did we'd know it.

I know its hard to accept the mother of all religions is "Hinduism" and the Abrahamic faiths are an off-shoot.

Chronological time hits Abrahamic folks hard.

Tell someone that Buddha lived 600 years before Jesus and said virtually the same things he did and boy you are going to hell lmao

Not going to argue about "scripture" it isn't the word of God.

The idea that people wrote down what Jesus said and knew what he meant is a huge fallacy.

edit1: Is Jesus returning in the flesh? No. Never.

Does he live in all of us right now. Yes.

So if God dwells within you then what are you?

God.

Every person is on the path to realizing "God" whether they know it or not.

The only fools are the one saying "This way is the only way". (((Abrahmic)))

Trump can still feel sorry for his "sins" and not specifically say "Jesus Christ only through you can I feel sorry!".

Makes no sense. It's why the Abrahmic faith is good but it's scripture too cryptic and filled with fallacies.
